my first trip part 2

WILD BILL

 

That just means you’re cool.

 

                                                RANDY

 

I’m cool?

 

 

 

                                                WILD BILL

 

No. Not really.

 

                                                RANDY

 

Oh.

 

                                                WILD BILL

 

But you’re on the way. Don’t stare but here comes Mona. Ok. Don’t stare.

 

                                                RANDY

 

Stare at what? Oh, I see. She’s not wearing a bra under that top!

 

                                                WILD BILL

 

Shhhh. Be cool – hey what is your name?

 

                                                RANDY

 

Randall. Randall Craig. Randy.

 

                                                WILD BILL

 

I’m not calling you Randy. You need a new name.

 

 

I had never had a joint in my life. Or been drunk. Or even smoked a cig. But I was ready for a new reality. And I needed to learn this new language.
